The China-Led Belt And Road Initiative And Its Reflections The Crisis Of Hegemony And Changing Global Orders | Asian Studies

This book analyzes the origins and the impacts of China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) on diplomacy economy (trade investment finance) and security among selected host countries and regions in Asia Africa and the European Union. By examining the geopolitical economy of BRI activities it concisely describes the impact of the rise of China and its BRI policy strategy on the reshaping of world order and global governance. This volume explores the BRI by addressing several key questions including: Why did the Chinese leadership set up the BRI? What are the activities of BRI projects in the participating countries and related regions? What are the challenges to the successful implementation of the BRI in the various countries and regions? Moreover through its analysis of the abovementioned questions it provides novel contributions to the ongoing scholarly debates between Chinese and non-Chinese scholars – among others the debate surrounding the “rise of China” and its impact on global governance. Featuring an extensive variety of expert contributors this study will be an essential reading for students and scholars of International Relations and Global Political Economy as well as Chinese politics and those with an interest in the Belt and Road Initiative more broadly. |The China-led Belt and Road Initiative and its Reflections The Crisis of Hegemony and Changing Global Orders | Asian Studies
